Uncle Eli's Special-for-Kids Most Fun Ever Under-the-Table Passover Haggadah - During the Passover meal, everyone reads a special story, called a Haggadah. Uncle Eli and Dr. Seuss have a lot in common; Haggadah was never like this!

Like building a pyramid of chocolate ice cream when the sun was so hot that the Nile turned to steam, and digging a ditch with a spade of soft cotton. That Pharaoh was wicked and nasty and rotten!"
Virtual Seder Plate - The Passover Seder meal is very symbolic. This site features a special Seder plate; click on it to learn about the various foods eaten during this ritual meal.
